New York Magazine's website, I think, has a great hierarchy. Across the top is a navigation bar leading the user to potential pages they can visit. When the mouse scrolls over a page, a drop-down bar appears giving the user even more specific options within that subject page. Then, in the fashion page, for example, there is a sidebar navigation with more subheads. This is in a different container than the main text on the page so the user knows it's a navigation box.
The light blue text shows the user that these will open a new article or link.
I think this makes it easier for the readers to get the specific information they are looking for. The text and images aren't cluttered providing a more appealing website
